Everyone at the Novato location is always extremely helpful. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the employees there. We don’t go anywhere else to buy our plants! – Liza P.

Welcome to Armstrong Garden Centers, Novato

Manager Linda Leathers

I have worked for Armstrong Gardens since 2009. Before Armstrong I worked at Yard birds in the garden dept. as a cashier. At Armstrong I was challenged to get my California Certified Nursery Professional certification, which I did. I have a variety of interests from planting for birds and butterflies to growing vegetables. My favorite part of working at Armstrong is helping customers design or freshen up a space they can enjoy for either entertaining or their own hideaway space. Outside of working at Armstrong I love horses and hiking. They both get me out into nature's garden. Armstrong has several programs to assist both new and experienced gardeners to be successful and I would encourage you to ask any of our associates about them, especially the Advantage Rewards Program.
